Do you want to grow your own fresh food, but don’t have access to your own garden plot?
Northey Street City Farm’s Allotment Gardens are the perfect opportunity to get started. Grow your own organic food, learn from others and share in this wonderful inner-city community.
To apply for an allotment, please complete the online allotments application and agreement form HERE.
You will need to read the NSCF Allotment Guidelines before doing so, which you can access HERE.
The allotment beds are 1m x 4.5m and can be hired for an annual fee (listed below) plus a $70 refundable bond (conditions apply). As allotments are a members’ benefit, we require all allotment holders to become members of Northey Street City Farm. To apply for membership, and to find out about the other benefits of becoming a member, see our Membership page.
As an NSCF member, you will receive a 10% discount on purchases from the City Farm Nursery, the convenient place to buy all your allotment needs like seedlings, mulch, and soil amendments.
Allotment fees (annual):
$208 (Health Care Card / Low Income) | $312 (Middle Income) |$416 (High Income / Organisations).
By offering a sliding scale fee we are able to make our allotments more accessible to low-income earners. We ask you to nominate the amount which is most suited to your financial situation.
